The processor (CPU) and memory (RAM) can be found on the motherboard of your PC.
The CPU is under the CPU Cooler, which in most cases looks like a fan over an aluminum or copper "box" on your motherboard. You really cant miss it. Be careful if you try to remove it, handling it carelessly can cause permanent damage to your motherboard/CPU.
The memory/RAM is usually sitting beside the CPU, the look like strips which measure about 4 inches with little chips attached to the side. Again be sure to be static-free when you handle any PC component.
The storage device is quite easy to find. It's in the front of the PC Cabinet. Usually screwed in position.
Inside the computer, you will find a fan and heatsink assembly clamped on or screwed down. Indeed there may be many of these, but the largest one on your motherboard is most likely the CPU cooler. Under that heatsink is your CPU.
Note: If you plan to open up your computer & find the CPU bear a few things in mind.
1. Never open up a computer that's plugged in.
2. Be very careful when removing the CPU heatsink, some clips are very tempermental and you may damage the heatsink CPU or motherboard if you slip.
What is a procecessor in a computer? It's the main brain of the computer normally located on the motherboard
On the Motherboard. Most modern boards will have the CPU covered with a heat sink (a little finned radiator) to dissipate the heat generated by the CPU. So look for the heat sink.
The Computer Processor Unit (CPU) is found on the motherboard, with a fan on top to keep the processor as cool as possible.
On the motherboard.
The function of the CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the heart of the computer. Everything the computer needs to do has to go through the CPU. The CPU tells the computer what to do, when to do it, and how to do it.
If a computer has a "brain", it would be the CPU, or Central Processing Unit.
Components within a computer need to be able to work with each other. this is called compatability. Usually a system builder would start with a computer CPU (Central prosessing unit) and find the best compatible motherboard for the cpu. Then from there would find the best compatible Memory, and other components
under the fan, on your motherboard :>
I would have to say the CPU, the CPU is needed with any computer. If the CPU doesn't have a fan or heat sink it'll kill your computer, kinda like your brain
I would want to buy something that has a CPU of 3.0 GHz or more and about a 250GB or more hard drive. You can find such computer systems at http://www.vinixcomputer.com
You can check how fast your CPU is by using the control panel on your computer. Just click on "my computer" and choose the "system properties" menu. Here you will find the speed of your CPU.

The CPU is hardware, the "monitor program" is software that runs on the CPU. They are very different things having different and incompatible implementations.
Yes, the CPU itself is a processing device, it is the "brain" of the computer. CPU = Central *Processing* Unit
The CPU is not like blood, if the CPU were a human body part it would best fit as the brain of the computer.
A CPU test or a "stress test" is where a computer is vigorously tested to find out how stable the computer is. It can determine the breaking points and safe usage limits of the computer, as well as how or why a computer system fails.
